"God's Play (DEMO)" lyrics

Sometimes I'm still sixteen inside
The years my friends were getting high
I worried like a Yankee girl
I worried like a grandmother
I wanted to be a drunk like them
I was bottled up in books alone
Maybe I'm the better
But maybe I'm the worse
Repression is a curse

Headlights on I-95
Imagining what it's like to die
I don't think I would feel afraid
If souls live through the Milky Way
If we all become a star in God's play

So I drove my first car, a '68 Mercury
I drove it with my anger
But at least I was the driver
And I would shut my eyes doing sixty-five
I figured if I died
It was meant to be
It was as good a time as any

Headlights on I-95
Imagining what it's like to die
I don't think I would feel afraid
If souls live through the Milky Way
If we all become a star in God's play

Now it's sixteen on twenty-eight
But there's a gorgeous view from where I stand
Such a cloudless blue, blue sky
I'm a little closer to joy

Headlights on I-95
Imagining what it's like to die
I don't think I would feel afraid
If souls live through the Milky Way
If we all become a star

Headlights on I-95
Imagining what it's like to die
I don't think I would feel afraid
If souls live through the Milky Way
If we all become a star in God's play
In God's play
